Da Qiao knew that Wang Ning had seen through her. She stopped disguising herself. She pulled off the fake white hair from her head, revealing her black hair. She straightened her waist and snorted disdainfully. She ignored Wang Ning's stretched out hand and walked out of the carriage. She turned around and ordered Ling Zhi, "General Ling, please give me a basin of water."

Ling Zhi was stunned. He suddenly realized and quickly commanded the soldiers, "Go and fetch water."

The soldier ran away and a basin of water came from the well for a moment. Da Qiao took out a parcel from his package. Under the gaze of the soldiers, he washed away the disguise on his face and revealed her beautiful face. She tied up her hair, and even Wang Ning was moved by the elegant and charming posture. He finally understood why Wu Hou wanted this woman, and she was indeed the unparalleled beauty in the world.

The soldiers around him exclaimed, it turned out that she was Mrs. Qiao, but how could she look like an old woman?

At this time, Zhang Hong slowly walked forward, his arm was pierced by the iron thorns on the window, and blood was flowing. He looked at Wang Ning coldly, "General Wang, if you want to kill me, just do it directly. Why do you deliberately cause trouble? Even I despise you."

Wang Ning quickly bowed and said, "The Chief Secretary misunderstood. Bei Zhi found that the horse's eyes were red and bloodshot, and he was about to go crazy. Bei Zhi was afraid that it would go crazy and hurt Changshi, so he stabbed it to death in time."

"So, you are trying to save me," Zhang Hong sneered sarcastically.

“It’s right”

Wang Ning spoke righteously and had no guilt on his face, which made Zhang Hong admire his thick-skinned face. But what kind of person Zhang Hong is? No matter how smart Wang Ning is, he is just the cunning of a small person. How could he be compared with Zhang Hong, who has the wisdom of the prime minister?

Zhang Hong ignored him and turned to Da Qiao and said, "Madam Qiao, since the carriage is broken, let's walk."

Da Qiao turned around and followed Zhang Hong to the outside of the city. Wang Ning was very anxious and hurried forward to stop them, "Zhang Changshi, you can leave, but Mrs. Qiao cannot leave."

"Why can't you leave?"

Zhang Hong raised his voice and said loudly: "What a joke. Captain Wang actually wants to imprison Mrs. Qiao. Why are you? Do you have any shameful purpose?"

Zhang Hong's voice was very loud, and the soldiers around him could hear it clearly. Wang Ning secretly complained in his heart. What should he do if he asked him to do at this time, Da Qiao also said loudly: "General Wang, I advise you to let me leave, otherwise I will tell the truth. The person who lost his reputation is not me."

This was a direct threat. Wang Ning's face changed, but he reacted quickly and said quickly: "Madam, because the assassin has not been caught, I don't know how many accomplices they have. Bei Zhi is very worried about the safety of his wife. If the wife must leave, please Rong Bei Zhi protect his wife."

Without waiting for Zhang Hong to speak, he immediately ordered his opponent: "I won't come to protect my wife yet."

Wang Ning was also betting that Zhang Hong would not allow Da Qiao to reveal the truth. After all, Zhang Hong is a minister, and it is his obligation to protect the monarch.

Although Zhang Hong did not want Da Qiao to tell the truth, he would not let Wang Ning's men guard him, and the two sides were once again in a stalemate at the city gate.

At this moment, a soldier shouted: "The Marquis of Wu has arrived."

Sun Quan came in person, and Zhang Hong, Da Qiao and Wang Ning were both stunned at the same time. How could Sun Quan come so by chance? Could it be that who reported the message to him? However, when Sun Quan arrived, the situation did not become complicated, but became simpler. Wang Ning did not dare to make the decision to magnify Qiao and leave. Even if he fought to the death, he would leave Da Qiao, but Sun Quan could magnify Qiao and leave. Zhang Hong immediately made a decision in his heart.

Sun Quan received an urgent report. Zhang Changshi was attacked by the army of the captain Wang Ning at the north city gate. A bloody conflict occurred between the two sides. Zhang Changshi was in danger. Sun Quan thought that Wang Ning was in revenge for Zhang Hong's impeachment in the morning. He was very anxious and hurriedly led the guards to come on horseback. Zhang Hong and Zhang Zhao were the two prime ministers he relied on the most important, and he would never want to hear the news of Zhang Hong's accident.

Sun Quan rushed into the city cave and saw the dead horse on the ground at a glance, with blood flowing all over the ground, shocking. He immediately hated Wang Ning. This slave was spoiled by him, and even the prime minister dared to intercept and kill him.

Sun Quan walked in quickly and shouted loudly: "No one is allowed to move around."

He turned around and saw Zhang Hong, and saw blood flowing from his arm. He didn't know the injury. He felt sad and stepped forward to comfort him and said, "Mr. Zhang, how is your injury?"

Zhang Hong was originally very angry with Sun Quan. Now, seeing that Sun Quan cares about his injuries, it was completely a true expression, not a pretender. The anger in his heart slightly dissipated and bowed and said, "Thank you for your concern. Hu Shihou is very loyal. Under the fierce killing of Wang Ziwei, he can survive. Hu Shi must thank God for his favor."

Sun Quan was furious and turned around and shouted angrily: "Wang Ning, you are so brave."

Seeing that Zhang Hong was vague about the truth, Wang Ning misunderstood the truth as if he was going to kill him, and he misunderstood the Marquis of Wu. He was angry and anxious and quickly knelt down and explained: "No matter how brave the Beizhi is, he dare not hurt Zhang Changshi. Please ask Wuzhi to listen to Beizhi's explanation."

But Zhang Hong did not give Wang Ning a chance to explain. He asked aggressively: "Person Wang, are you going to kill my horse? If it weren't for the servants' efforts to protect them and the carriage was overturned, would I still survive? Isn't this a fact?"

He turned back to Sun Quan and said, "I accompanied my old wife to Bujin Temple to burn incense. Unexpectedly, the Captain Wang chased me and my horse, and was vicious. He killed my horse and destroyed my carriage. He wanted to kill me and my wife to death. But I was very lucky and escaped. Please ask the Marquis of Wu to make the decision for the old minister."

At this moment, Sun Quan suddenly saw Da Qiao standing beside him. He was stunned. His mind turned sharply and immediately understood what happened. Wang Ning was not for Zhang Hong, but for chasing Da Qiao.

After all, Sun Quan is a talented and stubborn person. Although he has ordinary people and the viciousness of superiors, his thoughts and reactions are not comparable to those of ordinary people. Just like he hated Liu Jing, he can still be called brothers and brothers with Liu Jing. Even Liu Jing is beyond the reach of his disguise. He was just stunned and immediately pretended to be surprised and said, "Why is the sister-in-law here?"

Da Qiao was disgusted with him, and she turned her head in disgust and ignored Sun Quan. However, Zhang Hong stepped forward and said, "Mrs. Qiao has lived in my mansion these two days and talked about Buddhism with her old wife. They made an appointment to go to Bujin Temple in Jiangbei to burn incense and worship Buddha today, and the old ministers accompany them."

Sun Quan immediately understood that Zhang Hong was going to escort Da Qiao away. Looking at Da Qiao's beautiful appearance, how could he bear to prevent her from leaving? He couldn't help but hesitate. Wang Ning hurriedly added beside him: "Report to the Marquis of Wu, the assassin has not yet been caught. Bei Zhi suspected that the assassin had a party, and was afraid that the assassin would be unfavorable to Mrs. Qiao and Zhang Changshi, so he rushed to stop him. However, Zhang Changshi misunderstood, so it was a little unpleasant. Bei Zhi had no intention of offending the chief."

Sun Quan sighed and said to Zhang Hong: "I don't want to stop the Chief Secretary, but I'm just worried that the assassin's party will be unfavorable to my sister-in-law and Chief Secretary, so can I ask the Chief Secretary and his wife to go two days later to ensure safety."

At this time, more and more people were watching the fun around, with tens of thousands of people. Many senior officials from Jiangdong who lived near the North Gate also appeared in the crowd, such as Zhuge Jin, Huan Jie, Ling Tong, Xu Sheng, Kan Ze and other senior officials of Wu. Today was just the weekend. They heard that they were checking assassins, so they stayed at home without interfering with the soldiers. However, when they heard that something happened to Zhang Hong, everyone rushed to the city gate one after another.

When everyone saw that Wu Hou had come, they came forward to greet each other, which made Sun Quan a little nervous. He was worried that things would be a big deal, especially the big Geochi was tough. Once she told the truth, it would be a bad thing.

At this time, Zhang Hong stepped forward and bowed deeply to Sun Quan, and said earnestly: "Wu Hou, our Jiangdong was defeated first in Yuzhang, and then infighted again, leading to the split of Wu. For Jiangdong, from the General of Taiwan to the present, this is unprecedented weakness in Jiangdong, as if a man was about to die, his life was hanging on a line, but I was not discouraged. I firmly believe that Jiangdong will be revived again, because of the great talent of Wu Hou and the loyal follower of the officials. Wu Hou is reputable and kindness is spread in Jiangdong. It is not comparable to Sun Shao and Sun Ben and other cruel and lewd people. Even Cao Cao and Liu Jing praised Wu Hou as the hero of Jiangdong and were willing to come to Jiangdong to meet Wu Hou. I am willing to do my best to assist Wu Hou. I just hope that Wu Hou will cherish his feathers, lie on firewood and taste gall, and work hard to govern. My Jiangdong will surely be revived again."

After saying that, Zhang Hong knelt down. The senior officials of the martial arts were not understanding Zhang Hong's intentions and also knelt down. However, Sun Quan knew it was Zhang Hong who was persuading himself to let go. If he insisted on his own and did not cherish his reputation, he would betray his relatives and betrayal just like Sun Ben because of his debauchery.

Sun Quan sighed in his heart and looked at Da Qiao again. Seeing her look of resoluteness, he knew that he would not get this beautiful beauty in the world in the end. In desperation, he asked again: "I don't know where my sister-in-law plans to go after she goes to Jiangbei to burn incense."

Da Qiao said without hesitation: "I plan to find Princess Shangxiang and give her the old lady's relics and letters."

Sun Quan smiled bitterly on his face and said to Zhang Hong: "Please rest assured, Sun Quan is a person who knows his mistakes and can correct them."

He pointed at Wang Ning and ordered: "This man was bold and reckless, trying to avenge his personal revenge. The burden of the chief secretary was injured. He pushed this man down and beat him up again and removed him from his post as a captain."

The guards dragged Wang Ning down like wolves and tigers. Wang Ning knew that Sun Quan was using him as a scapegoat, but he did not dare to argue. He closed his eyes and let the guards drag him down. Sun Quan glanced at Da Qiao again and said reluctantly: "Sister-in-law, please take care of me."

He turned around and walked quickly outside the city, and soon rode away from the North City and disappeared at the end.

Zhang Hong then breathed a sigh of relief. Now he wanted to leave quickly before Sun Quan regretted it. He hurriedly said to Da Qiao: "Madam, let's go."

Da Qiao nodded and got on the carriage with Zhang Hong and his wife again. The coachman drove the single carriage and left the city gate with the servants' guards. He soon arrived at the riverside. A five-stone passenger ship was parked on the dock by the riverside. At this time, a woman in red walked out of the cabin. It was Zhong Xue, who had left the city first. Seeing Da Qiao and Zhang Hong and his wife walking in, she laughed loudly and said, "Wu Hou Ke arrived at the city gate in time."

"It turned out to be you." Zhang Hong suddenly realized that Sun Quan arrived in time, and it was Zhong Xue who went to report the letter. He had to admire Zhong Xue's intelligence. If Wang Ning did not recognize Da Qiao, Sun Quan would not recognize him. If Wang Ning recognized Da Qiao, then only Sun Quan could not force Sun Quan to release him.

Zhang Hong couldn't help but give a thumbs up and praised: "What a smart girl, she is indeed very wise."

Zhong Xue was a little embarrassed and said, "Please get on the boat quickly, so as not to have too many dreams."

Da Qiao turned around and knelt down to Zhang Hong, and shed tears of gratitude, "Da Qiao can escape from the tiger's mouth, all thanks to Zhang Changshi. If you don't thank him for your kindness, Da Qiao will remember it in your heart."

Zhang Hong sighed in his heart and hurriedly asked Da Qiao, "Madam, let's go quickly, Jianye is not safe."

Da Qiao got up and sailed, the passenger ship slowly left the dock, heading towards the north bank of the river. Five thousand stone warships and a thousand elite soldiers had already docked on the north bank of the river. They would guard Da Qiao from Jiangdong and head for Xiangyang.
